Jay Kern - CIR Realty REALTOR® | CIR Realty | Central Alberta. Helping families find the lifestyle they're after.

Red Deer • Innisfail • Sylvan Lake • Lacombe • Penhold | 587-802-1500 | linktr.ee/kernrealty I believe that your home is your sanctuary and should be treated as such. Whether you’re buying your first home or seeking that dream retirement residence, the experience should be nothing less than seamless. As a family man and homeowner, I understand that your home is more than just a place to live — it's a place to create lasting memories for you and your loved ones. I help my clients navigate the often challenging waters of the home buying and selling process, with the end result being a wonderful experience. When I’m not busy helping clients, I enjoy spending time with my wife, Roberta, and our family. Together, we enjoy going to the mountains, hiking, biking, and cross-country skiing.

Selling isn't always about the "right" season — it's about your life, your family, and your goals. The market will always have something to say, but your situation is what matters most.

Whether you're thinking three months out or next year, there's no shame in getting clarity early. A good conversation now can save you headaches later.

📊 Red Deer home values — still rising, but the pace has slowed

These track the same benchmark home over time, so they follow the market rather than whichever homes happened to sell. Over the two years through September 2026:

🏡 Detached +8.8%
🏘️ Row / Townhouse +18.2%
🏢 Apartment +15.9%
🏠 Semi-Detached +10.7%

Across all home types, values are +10.8% over two years — but most of that gain came in the first of those two years. The past year has been noticeably slower.

A typical detached home, year by year:
Year to September 2024: +10.5%
Year to September 2025: +5.7%
Year to September 2026: +2.9%

Still going up — just more slowly.

Curious what YOUR home has done? Reply "value" and I'll follow up with a detailed report — or let's book a quick call.

Lacombe has a way of drawing people in.

A full hospital with a 24/7 emergency department, Burman University, local schools and parks, and a real sense of community make it a place families put down roots. Red Deer is close for work and bigger errands, but you still get that small-town rhythm and room to breathe.

If you're a move-up family ready for more space, or you've been picturing a slower pace without giving up real services, Lacombe deserves a closer look.

Curious what life in Lacombe could look like for your family? Call or text me at 587-802-1500 and I'll walk you through the neighbourhoods.

Most of us don't think about home insurance until something goes wrong — and by then it's too late to change the coverage. A policy review takes about an hour and can save a lot of regret.

Know what you're actually covered for, update your inventory as life changes, and ask questions if anything feels unclear.

Want the name of an insurance advisor I trust? Send me a message or call 587-802-1500.

A draft-free home isn't just about comfort — it's about knowing your space is working as hard as you are.

Weatherstripping, caulking gaps, and checking seals around windows and doors are the kind of maintenance details that buyers notice. They signal a home that's been cared for.
